He provided a spark off the bench, hitting 4-of-7 from the floor and knocking down both of his three point attempts. Still, his inconsistent minutes and general inconsistency when he's on the floor make him a non-viable option for your team if you're in the playoffs.","date":"Sun Mar 29"},"fullName":"Otto Porter Jr.","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Because Trevor Ariza performed so unexpectedly well, and the Wizards collectively began to compete in the East, there simply wasn't room for the third overall pick to learn on the fly last season. Porter looked every bit the No. 3 pick in summer league games, though, so he does carry some sleeper potential this season, if he can carve out a big enough role. Although Ariza's replacement (Paul Pierce) likely won't play excessive minutes, he should start and keep Porter in a sixth-man role, capping his upside. Glen Rice Jr. also had a hot summer and will be in the mix for minutes at the 3. He's a quality target in keeper leagues and worth keeping a close eye on in redrafts. --TC","seasonId":2015,"date":"Fri Oct 3"},"playerRater30DAY":-3.8,"playerRater15DAY":-4.6,"positionRank":44}
